Holiday Sales?
-
Hello everyone. This is the first holiday season I am ready to make some purchases to enhance my CG experience. I would hate to make a $300.00 purchase today just to find out its on sale tomorrow. Are there usually sales around this time of year on various things such as render programs, plugins,etc.? I am definitely buying Thea and would like to get xfrog, and Terragen 2 one day but can't help but wonder if I should wait a little while or am I wasting time? As I said this is my first shopping spree for CG related items. Any suggestions is appreciated.

Once you register Thea after purchase you can download some Xfrog trees in the licensed user section, there will be more added as they are optimised for Thea. The next version of Thea is 1,2 probably coming out next month, free upgrade to all registered users so buying now will make sense.
How do you plan to use Terragen2? with Vue?

Thanks for the info on Thea. I was just holding out in case they had an upcoming sale. Was wondering if historically the cg community had these conditions every year.
I actually did some research and chose Terragen over Vue after reading some comparison reviews. Traditionally I been painting landscapes for many years so having a 3D landscape generator makes sense for me to have. I would like to use Terragen to make back drops, and even use generated terrain meshes to import into blender or even Sketchup. I downloaded the demo already and the only issue I'm having so far is the lack of good tutorials and info to learn the thing quickly. I would like the license version to use professionally and break out of the 800x600 maximum res. As far as xfrog goes, aside from the libraries I can get to use in Thea, I would like to have the tree generator itself so I can make my own trees. So far I been using the free Tree[d] program but xfrog look so much better. Im still feeling my way around the cg community and getting an idea of what tools will be great for me to have in my workflow. So far I got plenty of modeling tools, now I am focusing on Thea and anything that enhances the environments for my projects.
